It has been a wretched tour for the Afghans -- losing six matches in a row -- but skipper Ibrahim Zadran said he was "feeling great" after his team held their nerve in a dramatic close with a hard-fought win.

"I am happy with the win," Zadran said. "Unfortunately, we lost the series."
Sri Lanka had already secured the three-match T20 series after winning the first two games, the first by four runs, and the second by 72 runs.
They had also won the one-off Test match and the one-day international series in a 3-0 clean sweep.
But Afghanistan seemed determined to win at least one match.
